I've already been through the search for saddlebag guards for the Deluxe--including installing OE guards and then yanking them back off due to their unappealing square shape and their not protecting my fishtails. Check out this post for details of what ended up working for me: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/softa...l#post18376130
That is exactly what I was looking for. I see the link still works too. Beside the longer peg bolt and the chrome spacer, any other issues?

No other issues. They've been great.

Very welcome. ...and while this is stainless (not chromed), it's the right size spacer if you can't find somewhere else: https://www.extsw.com/products/extsw...1bc4ba1a&_ss=r

Any chance of getting an approximate measurement from mounting bolt to mounting bolt on the exhaust side?
I'm trying to see if these will work on a '17 deluxe.
Thanks in advance!

Both sides look to be 13 and 3/8 inches from center to center.

I think it would work. My Ace only had 1/4 inch chrome spacers and I think I could have gotten away with a little less to close the gap between the fender rail and guard.
